John McClane’s son - John Jr - ends up being killed by a man named Ichiro Takagi - the son of Joseph Takagi from The Nakatomi Incident. Takagi wants McClane to feel the loss he has felt. McClane’s search for his son’s killer reunites him with old acquaintances Al Powell and Zeus Carver, and the descendants of former allies such as Johnny Barnes and Powell’s own son Roy. McClane’s search also brings him back to old locations where he’s intervened in terrorist incidents such as the ruins of the Nakatomi Plaza and Dulles Airport.
